Samsung is one of the best cell phone manufacturers, each time offering amazing and revolutionary mobile phones, equipped with a lot of high-end technology. The Samsung F480 cell phone is one of the best sold full-touch screen handsets ever made by Samsung. Even if it doesn’t have the performance of an iPhone, it will offer you a lot of features which can be found only on top-rated mobile phones.

In design terms, the Samsung F480 cell phone doesn’t come with many differences, looking almost similar to the other touch screen Samsung models. It comes with a case made of resistant plastic painted in a nice and attractive glossy black. An important difference is that this cell phone has small sizes for a touch screen mobile phone. It measures 95.9 x 55 x 11.5 mm in dimensions and has only 100 grams in weight. With these dimensions, it feels comfortable in your hands and fits great in any pocket.
The front side is occupied by an impressive touch screen, a speaker, a secondary camera for video calling, the Call and End keys and an OK button. On the sides, you will find a volume rocker (which can also be used for zooming browser pages), a microSD card slot, a Universal USB port (this allows you to charge the phone, connect it to a PC or attach headphones) and a shutter camera. On the top part, this Samsung cell phone comes with a hold button and a lanyard eyelet. As you can see, the Samsung designers have chosen only the most useful multimedia keys for this phone model and that happened because they wanted to create a handset with a very simple design and form.
Anyway, it’s time to talk about technology. Maybe the most important feature of the Samsung F480 cell phone is the display. The 2.8 inch QVGA display has a native resolution of 240 x 320 pixels and it’s capable of showing 262K colors. Why it is so impressive? Well, this display offers great quality images with nice contrast, brightness and saturated colors at 16:9 aspect ratio. It is very responsive even at the weakest touch so you will easily operate it. But even with such a powerful display, this cell phone is useless on a sunny day. The glossy design will affect the clarity of images making them to have a reduced legibility. Another impressive feature of this Samsung F480 cell phone is the camera. With a 5 Megapixel sensor and armed with features like autofocus, LED flash, face detection, wide dynamic range and image stabilization, this camera is capable of taking photos at a maximum resolution of 2592 x 1944 pixels and record QVGA clips at a speed of 30 fps. Even if the QVGA resolution of clips is a bit disappointing for a high-end mobile phone like this, you will love the quality of images. For storing these photos, clips and many other files, the Samsung F480 cell phone is equipped with 232 MB of internal memory and a microSD card slot which allows you to extend the memory up to 8 GB.
For a price of $289 you will not only get a great looking cell phone. You will also get a mobile phone equipped with a lot of connectivity options. Even if the Samsung F480 is only a Tri-Band cell phone, it gives you access to features like 3G, GPRS, EDGE, Bluetooth and USB.
